    It’s not just on here I’m saying in general. Vocally Unhappy fanbase gets shit changed, if it doesn’t no one shows up until it does.

    So the blazers fucked up by passing on Donavan Mitchell who is 6'3 and a 6'10 wing span, and also fucked up by taking Simons who is 6'3" with a 6'9" wing span....... that damn 1 inch.

    Olshey said he had mis-estimated this team (actually, he didn't take blame and said they had improved faster than "anyone" thought). So he would now stop his youth movement. Was he lying, or did he flip-flop?

    Could have been smoke screens making teams think we were trading the pick?

    He's either not done or he's done in Portland would be my guess...Olshey has to move a needle before training camp

    Gary Trent, Sr. has taught Jr. well. We definitely need GT Jr. to show Simons how to be a beast in the weight room.

    I'm okay with the Pick because Simons has great upside, but holy shit he looks like a 13 year old teenager. His First nba years will be so difficult for him

    Yeah but everyone seems to be commenting on "another 6'3" shooting guard". Not about his skill or lack of.

    To go the other way, there is a poster who thinks being positive towards Meyers will make him better, so.. It goes both ways. It doesnt matter on either side lol.
